Prognostic Utility of Cardiac MRI Myocardial Strain Parameters in Patients With Ischemic and Nonischemic Dilated Cardiomyopathy: A Multicenter Study. Article Publication Date. 2-Nov-2022.

Myocardial strain (S) imaging by echocardiography can be used to detect early abnormalities of cardiac function in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Background: Anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS) are sometimes used by power athletes to improve performance by increasing muscle mass and strength. Recent bioptical data have shown that in athletes ...

A history of coronary disease predicted reduced left ventricular myocardial strain 3 months after a COVID hospitalization in what may be the first such study to explore the issue.

PARIS — Defining global longitudinal strain variance in a normal patient population may be used as a clinical decision-making tool to aid the clinician in the detection of myocardial dysfunction ...

Conversely, peak systolic myocardial atrial strain was significantly reduced in patients with pathological LVH compared with controls and athletes for all the analysed atrial segments (p<0.0001).

Myocardial deformation imaging by speckle tracking techniques in echocardiography, commonly known as strain imaging, has been demonstrated to detect early myocardial dysfunction before a decrease in ...

This novel technology is a reliable, economical and simple tool for estimating regional and global myocardial function. Furthermore, 4D XStrain STE can accurately quantify the 4D LV ejection ...

Sacubitril-valsartan improves longitudinal strain and ejection fraction in preclinical models treated with anthracyclines through NLRP3, MyD88 pathways resulting in a reduction of myocardial IL-1β, ..
